Words to Delight My Teacher Manjughosha (Wyl. dbu ma rgyan gyi rnam bshad 'jam dbyangs bla ma dgyes pa'i zhal lung) - Mipham Rinpoche's famous commentary on the Madhyamakalankara.

Criticism

The commentary was controversial, and prompted criticism from the Nyingmapa scholar called Dodrup Damchö Zangpo, who is said to have challenged Mipham Rinpoche to a debate. In response, Mipham wrote Dispelling the Doubts of Damchö (dam chos dwogs sel).
